I am finishing a component list for my next PC, and am still undecided about CPU cooling part. I will probably not choose a water-cooling device as I guess those are not the most efficient + silent choice.

I would like a cpu cooling heatsink/fan with the following characteristics :- good cooling results, both for standard and OC CPU (I will not use extreme OC but will probably use the standard OC setting of the motherboard)- very good noise ratio (what would be one of the best component to choose for maximum noise reduction)- good look, as the other components are quite nice to look at (overall black, red parts) and will be seen through the case window.

Most of the coolers from Noctua will meet your quiet and cool requirements; however, unless you have a wood-grained themed PC, they won't look good. The Dark Rock 2 seems legit; however, it is rather bulky compared to the others. I don't know enough about ThermalRight to type anything of value.
